Prehistoric Tigrikorn




I altered an illustration of an extinct Eurasian Rhino to create my Prehistoric version of Tigrikorn. Follow the flickr link to see the source art.

The extinct woolly rhino (Elasmotherium sibriricum) could have been the actual creature to give rise to the unicorn myth. The horn is in the right place and it is said to have ran as fast as a horse.
